A model for deformable roll coating with negative gaps and incompressible compliant layers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A soft elastohydrodynamic lubrication model is formulated for deformable roll coating involving two contra-rotating rolls, one rigid and the other covered with a compliant layer. Included is a finite-strip model (FSM) for the deformation of the layer and

Monitoring of lubricant film failure in a ball bearing using ultrasound [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A lubricant-film monitoring system for a conventional deep groove ball bearing (type 6016, shaft diameter 80 mm, ball diameter 12.7 mm) is described. A high-firequency (50 MHz) ultrasonic transducer is mounted on the static outer raceway of the bearing ...

History of ball bearings [PDF]

open access: yes
The familiar precision rolling-element bearings of the twentieth century are products of exacting technology and sophisticated science. Their very effectiveness and basic simplicity of form may discourage further interest in their history and development.

Fluctuation assisted spreading of a fluid filled elastic blister

open access: yes, 2017
In this theoretical and numerical study, we show how spatially extended fluctuations can influence and dominate the dynamics of a fluid filled elastic blister as is deforms onto a pre-wetted solid substrate. To describe the blister dynamics, we develop a

Analysis and Establishment of the Isothermal Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Model of the Cylindrical Gear with Arcuate Tooth Trace

open access: yesJixie chuandong, 2015
The cylindrical gear with arcuate tooth trace has advantages of high bearing capacity,high contact strength and steady transmission,etc.But there are also failure modes such as the wear of tooth surface,pitting and scuffing when it drives,it is mainly ...

Multi-scale analysis of the roughness effect on lubricated rough contact [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Determining friction is as equally essential as determining the film thickness in the lubricated contact, and is an important research subject. Indeed, reduction of friction in the automotive industry is important for both the minimization of fuel ...

Self-sustained lift and low friction via soft lubrication

open access: yes, 2016
Relative motion between soft wet solids arises in a number of applications in natural and artificial settings, and invariably couples elastic deformation and fluid flow.

Elastohydrodynamics of elliptical contacts for materials of low elastic modulus [PDF]

open access: yes
The influence of the ellipticity parameter k and the dimensionless speed U, load W, and materials G parameters on minimum film thickness for materials of low elastic modulus was investigated.
